Dec. 15, 2009 - Brier Island Xmas Bird Count, cont.

My final sighting for the day came at Freeport, about one minute  
after leaving the ferry from Westport (still in the Brier Island  
Count Circle?), I had a great and startling look at 4:40 p.m. of a  
huge-seeming OWL that had to be a great horned owl -- it flew over  
the road, from south to north, at an angle at very low elevation so  
that I had it in sight for several seconds as it angled away from the  
road, probably not far from Andy Moir's and Chris Callaghan's property.

Cheers from Jim in Wolfville
